📣Our paper is finally out!🤩 We found that local modification of H3K9me3 using CRISPR/dCas9 at hotspots changes crossover activity, bringing us closer to targeted recombination in plants.🌱 Huge thanks to @SzymanskaLejman, Wojtek, Ania, and Karolina!💪 science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…

I will need to read this paper a few more times, but it is not only spectacular, it is loaded with secrets regarding in vivo editing. Thanks a lot!
Led by @sharan_janjuha with @AcuitasTx @pardi_lab, our Nat Biomed Eng paper is out 🧬 We use in situ sequencing to read base & prime editing directly in tissues - from mouse brain (AAV) to macaque liver (RNA–LNP)-mapping lobules & redosing. Open access: rdcu.be/eHcN1

The fact that someone (here @PracheeAC) has to write an op-ed about what a scam journal publishing is every few years is such an embarrassment for science - a sign that its practitioners simply do not prioritize discovery and progress for the public good. wsj.com/opinion/academic-pub…

Right now is the best chance the scientific community has ever had to end the artificial scarcity of academic journals. Check out my new op-ed urging @NIH @NIHDirector_Jay to disallow taxpayer dollars towards journal publication fees — something both publishers and scientists have played a role in perpetuating. The last day for public comment on this topic is Monday, Sept 15. It’s time to unleash science. Links in 🧵

« There is not, has never been, and never will be, a system that can absolve you of the need to read papers, use data, conduct experiments, think about results, and share insights you find valuable. » 🎯
While journal publishing has always been deeply problematic, hurting both the pace and trajectory of science, something is happening in this moment that is finally causing the system to crumble under its own weight and cost. 1/

L’arrivée de l'intelligence artificielle avec les outils comme ChatGPT a chamboulé l’enseignement supérieur. Rapidement, nous avons mobilisé tous les acteurs du réseau et experts pour convenir d'une vision commune sur une utilisation responsable et sécuritaire dans nos établissements.   L’IA fait désormais partie du paysage, il y a une opportunité d'en tirer avantage, tout en étant conscient des limites de ces nouvelles technologies.   Je suis donc très fière d'annoncer le résultat de ces importants travaux: deux outils qui permettront d'aider nos établissements à s'adapter à cette réalité et faire des choix éclairés!   Les détails dans le communiqué: newswire.ca/fr/news-releases…

When we started thinking of CRISPR-dependent base editing as a potential therapeutic strategy to correct a mutation causing an ultra-rare monogenic disorder we did not quite know where to start!! (1/3) frontiersin.org/journals/gen…
